Coexpression analysis of nine neuropeptides in the neurosecretory preoptic area of larval zebrafish
The paraventricular nucleus (PVN) of the hypothalamus in mammals coordinates neuroendocrine, autonomic and behavioral responses pivotal for homeostasis and the stress response.

Expression of three GnRH receptors in specific tissues in male and female sea lampreys Petromyzon marinus at three distinct life stages [PDF]
Two recently cloned gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) receptors (lamprey GnRH-R-2 and lamprey GnRH-R-3) along with lamprey (l) GnRH-R-1 were shown to share similar structural features and amino acid motifs common to other vertebrate receptors.

Absence seizures and sleep–wake abnormalities in a rat model of GRIN2B neurodevelopmental disorder
Abstract Objective Pathogenic mutations in GRIN2B are an important cause of severe neurodevelopmental disorders resulting in epilepsy, autism, and intellectual disability. GRIN2B encodes the GluN2B subunit of N‐methyl‐d‐aspartate receptors (NMDARs), which are ionotropic glutamate receptors critical for normal development of the nervous system and ...

Distribution and characterisation of Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor expressing cells in the mouse brain. [PDF]
© 2015 The Authors.Objective: Although Glucagon-like peptide 1 is a key regulator of energy metabolism and food intake, the precise location of GLP-1 receptors and the physiological relevance of certain populations is debatable.

Abstract There is increasing interest in the role of probiotics in supporting maternal well‐being throughout female reproduction. However, it remains largely unknown whether the brain of a female with reproductive experience responds differently to probiotics compared to females without reproductive experience.

The ventral tegmental area (VTA) underlies motivation and reinforcement of natural rewards. The lateral preoptic area (LPO) is an anterior hypothalamic brain region that sends direct projections to the VTA and to other brain structures known to regulate ...

Estrogen Alters Oxytocin mRNA Levels in the Preoptic Area [PDF]
AbstractEstrogen has numerous effects on immunoreactive levels of oxytocin (OXT) centrally, particularly in the preoptic lateral subcommissural nucleus (LSN). In this study in situ hybridization of a 38‐base oligodeoxyribonucleotide (38mer) complementary to OXT mRNA revealed that estrogen treatment altered the pattern of OXT production in the rostral ...

The Goldfish as a Model for Studying Neuroestrogen Synthesis, Localization, and Action in the Brain and Visual System [PDF]
Organizational and activational effects of estrogen (E) in the central nervous system (CNS) are exerted directly by circulating E and indirectly after aromatization of circulating androgen to E in the brain itself. Understanding an environmental chemical'

Peripheral and central mechanisms involved in hormonal control of male and female reproduction [PDF]
Reproduction involves the integration of hormonal signals acting across multiple systems togenerate a synchronized physiological output. A critical component of reproduction is the luteinizinghormone (LH) surge, which is mediated by estradiol (E2) and ...

Sleep in neurodegenerative diseases: A focus on melatonin, melanin‐concentrating hormone and orexin
Abstract Sleep and circadian rest‐activity rhythm alterations are recognised as inherent clinical features of various neurodegenerative diseases. Traditionally viewed as secondary manifestations of neurodegeneration, recent studies have revealed that disruptions in circadian rhythm and sleep–wake cycles can precede clinical symptoms and significantly ...
